CHAPTER 956: CHAPTER 100: EXPERIENCING LOVE IN LIFE

Chapter 100

Bai Chenxi seemed to carry an aura of sacred light, making him stand out in a crowd.

"You’re here, come sit. I’ve ordered five different kinds of fish for you, and some fine Osmanthus Wine," Yan Yuan said warmly.

It had been so long since they last saw each other, and seeing him again made her very happy.

Mu Chiheng reacted and immediately stood up with a big smile, "Mr. Bai is here. I’m treating today; the fish at this place is excellent. I hope you don’t mind."

Bai Chenxi glanced at Mu Chiheng, then looked at Yan Yuan, his mind full of complaints, "This guy hasn’t changed a bit; as long as there’s food, he can win her over."

Yan Yuan pulled Bai Chenxi to sit by the dining table.

The antique wooden table was lined with various flavors of fish on both sides.

For a moment, the various aromas blended together, making one’s mouth water.

Yan Yuan took the initiative to pick a small fish and place it on Bai Chenxi’s plate.

"Try it, it’s really delicious." Yan Yuan said with an expectant look. She hoped he would like it as much as she did and appreciated such a delicacy.

Bai Chenxi was indeed a bit hungry after the long drive.

He picked up his chopsticks and elegantly put the fish into his mouth.

The fish was tender and fragrant, and even the small bones seemed to be perfectly crunchy. The combined flavors made it irresistible.

"How does it taste?" Yan Yuan asked nervously.

Bai Chenxi looked at her, nodded, and had to admit it was quite delicious.

"Not bad!"

Hearing his approval, Yan Yuan excitedly sat beside him, "I think so too. Bai Chenxi, why do I feel like you’ve lost weight recently? Is it because you don’t eat well when I’m not around?"

Bai Chenxi’s heart agreed with her, but he feigned disdain, saying, "I find the food quite tasty; I just don’t have the time to eat."

Yan Yuan giggled, "Oh, come on."

Not only is she a foodie, but she eats everything, so people with her can even cure anorexia.

Previously, when Bai Chenxi was with her, it was obvious he ate more during every meal.

Mu Chiheng watched the two and couldn’t help but want to laugh.

He could never imagine Bai Chenxi being such a relaxed boss in front of Yan Yuan.

No airs at all, just pretending not to like her.

In truth, anyone with eyes could see it.

"Yan Yuan, you keep eating. I just remembered I have something else to do. I’ll be leaving then!" Mu Chiheng said as he went to pay the bill.

Yan Yuan stopped him, "Mu Chiheng, you go ahead. We still have more to eat later; today someone is treating us."

"Ah!" Mu Chiheng suddenly looked at Bai Chenxi.

Did Yan Yuan mean Bai Chenxi would pay?

This isn’t right; he did say he wanted to cover the bill.

Mu Chiheng chuckled, "No problem. If you need anything, order it all now. I’ll settle the bill right away. Just give me the chance to treat the boss to a meal."

Yan Yuan was speechless.

She knew Mu Chiheng was a newbie, with a not-so-great financial situation, so this meal would definitely cost a lot.

However, since he said so, she didn’t feel comfortable saying more.

Bai Chenxi didn’t refuse either.

Indeed, letting him treat today is an honor, and he absolutely wouldn’t shortchange him.

Mu Chiheng, being perceptive, ordered five more fish, paid the bill, and left.

Bai Chenxi was very satisfied with his performance.

With Bai Chenxi accompanying her, Yan Yuan’s mood improved even more.

"Bai Chenxi, try this. This one tastes really good." Yan Yuan offered another piece of fish to him.

Bai Chenxi didn’t refuse, and even took the fish from her chopsticks into his mouth.

Seeing him obediently eating, Yan Yuan couldn’t have been happier.

It seemed that after some time apart, Bai Chenxi was gentler than before.

"Did you come specifically to see me?" Yan Yuan asked.

In fact, she had thought it through.

Even if she couldn’t marry Bai Chenxi, they could still date.

At worst, a hundred years later, they’d break up, he’d go his way, and she’d go hers.

Anyway, it was still a long time away from a hundred years from now.

As long as he said he came for her, she’d agree to be his girlfriend.

Yan Yuan thought this way.

Bai Chenxi, however, glanced at her and said with a cold face, "I came to check the progress of the crew, hoping you all finish shooting soon and return home."

Yan Yuan: "..."

Upon hearing this, she clenched her fist, frustratedly gritting her teeth, "Is that really the case?"

Bai Chenxi, seeing her face darken further, nodded.

Yan Yuan turned her head, eating and drinking heavily.

She decided not to pay any more attention to him in the future.

If it comes to it, she’ll go find Chu Chen and start a relationship, to find the feeling of love.

That bastard!

Bai Chenxi saw Yan Yuan looking all puffed up and couldn’t quite figure out what she was thinking.

Is she really concerned about her problems, or is there some other reason?

If she’s only angry because he didn’t come for her, does it mean during the time apart she finally figured it out?

That she’s willing to marry him now.

Thinking about this, Bai Chenxi secretly took out a delicate little box from his pocket.

"Yan Yuan, are you angry? I brought you a gift, want to take a look?" Bai Chenxi cautiously asked as he looked at her rosy cheeks.

Upon hearing this, Yan Yuan lifted her head again, looked at Bai Chenxi, and at the box in his hand, "For me?"

"Mmm!" Bai Chenxi nodded, "I bought it especially for you."

Yan Yuan accepted the box with a questioning look and opened it.

Inside was a sapphire necklace.

A silver chain holding a thumb-sized sapphire, its brilliance captivating and extravagant.

"Wow!" Yan Yuan was suddenly overjoyed, "So beautiful!"

Even though she’s used to seeing all kinds of exquisite gems in the Heavens, she couldn’t help but love this one.

Seeing that she liked it, Bai Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief. "I bought it at an auction. It looked so beautiful, I thought you’d like it and bought it for you. It’s good that you like it."

Yan Yuan nodded enthusiastically; she didn’t just like it, she absolutely adored it.

Especially, she always felt this necklace was special, although for now, she couldn’t tell where it was special.

"Thank you, Bai Chenxi. Since you’re so nice, I’ll be your girlfriend." Yan Yuan said with a playful smile.

Bai Chenxi initially thought he misheard, stunned there.

Seeing he didn’t react, Yan Yuan lightly kicked him, "Why are you just standing there? Didn’t you hear me say I’ll be your girlfriend?"

"Ah!" Bai Chenxi exclaimed, grabbed Yan Yuan’s hand, and said joyfully, "Are you serious?"

"Of course!" But the next moment, Yan Yuan looked at him seriously and said, "Remember, being your girlfriend doesn’t mean I’m planning to marry you."

Bai Chenxi held Yan Yuan’s hand, refusing to let go, "Then can we hold hands?"

Yan Yuan nodded.

Bai Chenxi took the opportunity to lean in and kiss Yan Yuan on the cheek.

Yan Yuan accidentally noticed the uncle hiding behind watching, which suddenly made her cheeks go red.

She glared at Bai Chenxi, but she wasn’t angry, she tacitly agreed.

The uncle, seeing Yan Yuan noticed him, awkwardly stepped out.

"Didn’t expect the young lass is already in a relationship. Do your family know?" The uncle looked at Bai Chenxi like he was looking at a bad guy bullying a minor.

Yan Yuan laughed till she was shaking with laughter.

Bai Chenxi, with a bitter expression, told the uncle, "Not at all, she’s already an adult. As long as she’s willing to marry me, I will definitely marry her."

The uncle couldn’t believe it, looking at the two, questioning Yan Yuan, "Young lady, how old are you?"

"Ten Thousand Years Old!" Yan Yuan said cheerfully.

The uncle, with a stern face, seeing the young lady not willing to reveal, thought she was still a minor, became even more serious, "Dating, marriage, those are major life decisions. Young lady, you must learn self-respect and self-love."

Yan Yuan was speechless for a moment.

Bai Chenxi grabbed her hand, just about to lead her away.

Yan Yuan disagreed, "Not leaving, haven’t finished eating yet. There’s still so many delicious little fishes I haven’t eaten, I promised the uncle earlier. Won’t waste food."

Bai Chenxi looked at the uncle, then at Yan Yuan, and finally sat down beside her to eat along with her.

"Osmanthus Wine, have some." Yan Yuan said with a smile.

Bai Chenxi always felt Yan Yuan was a bit strange.

Earlier, no matter how nice he was to her, dropping hints and even confessing.

She always refused him.

Why did she suddenly decide to start a relationship now?

Could it be that being apart really makes someone realize their true feelings?

And then Yan Yuan, with her straightforward personality, just directly became his girlfriend?

He always felt something was off, but couldn’t put a finger on it.

Nonetheless, since she’s already his girlfriend now.

There’s no way she’s going to fly away, right?

As long as she expresses willingness, he’ll never let go of her in this lifetime.

Yan Yuan’s thoughts were simple, isn’t it just dating?

Fine then, since she has plans to act in TV dramas, she can’t always fail at scenes where she likes someone, can she!

This would be considered as experiencing life.

What’s more, Bai Chenxi is quite nice to her too.
